Australia's Mixdown magazine has reviewed the Standard 151HR Black cabinet in their September issue, and they found lots of positive things.

Here are some highlights:

> (Markbass) seems to have grown so strongly and taken such a prominent place in bass players’ hearts over the past few years that they’ve become an aspirational brand.

> The Black Line is a really cool thing for Markbass to do: it’s nice that they’re acknowledging that there are players out there who want Markbass gear but can’t afford the high (but justified) price.
> The Standard 151HR sounded plenty punchy.

> The frequency response gives you a nice range from 45Hz to 20kHz.

> Its rear-ported for a nicely fine-tuned low end response.

> There was plenty of fullness to the midrange too.

> When it’s time to get a bit more modern, the cab really shines because it has that nice solid low end from the 15” speaker along with lots of clear treble courtesy of the tweeter.

> Markbass does a great job of keeping their speaker boxes lightweight.
